Hoyer: Dems are 'majority voice'
The Washington Examiner ^ | November 30, 2016 | Susan Ferrechio

Posted on 11/30/2016 3:23:48 PM PST by kevcol

House Democrats have a responsibility to fight for the "majority voice" of voters who rejected Republicans and President-elect Trump, House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer said Wednesday.

Hoyer, D-Md., said during a news conference that more people in the November election "voted for the agenda that this leadership group represents" and not for Republicans, who retained the majority in the House, the Senate and recaptured the White House.

In the Peoples Republic Of Maryland, his comment is true. People here, especially in his district are insufferably stupid. He simply reflects the illiterates who elect him.

As a lifetime Marylander I have to say your characterization is mostly, but not entirely, accurate. Many in the rural counties of the eastern shore and the counties to the west of Montgomery County are quite conservative. When I retired I left the Prince Georges County cesspool and moved to Garrett County, which I beliueve has voted Republican in every election since it was carved out of Allegany County in 1872.

we are a Constitutional Republic honestly I don”t think all people know that.

You stated this as a joke, right? Because I think it’s safe to say that at least 75% of the adult population does not know that. I know for a fact that most of my friends and relatives, the majority of whom are well educated in the academic sense, would not know how to correctly describe our form of government. Most would say it’s a “democracy”!

Yes. Now all liberals should move to New York and California so they never win a national election ever again.

Government schools have deliberate NOT edcuated children for decades about who and what America really is. Yes, we are a Free Constitutional Republic. The ONLY legal bulwark of freedom protecting us form the tyranny for the feds is the CONSTITUTION. Somehow our American People MUST re-familiarize themselves with the Constitution which LIMITS government.

Sure, Hoyer, keep that up and you'll be in the minority party for years to come. I truly hope Trump stomps the shit out of these Democrat idiots who have no new ideas but continue to recycle the same ole BS about Medicare, Social Security, etc.

“Large, densely populated Democrat cities (NYC, Chicago, LA, etc) don’t and shouldn’t speak for the rest of our country.””

The diminution of the big cities hold on our Republic should start with changing how the census data is used to create legislative districts. the census counts everyone irrespective of citizenship. Then those totals are utilized to create the “one man, one vote” districts. Since the census has tons of illegals counted in these cities, the cities get more districts, a hence more political clout. “They” tried to undo this travesty in Los Angeles County not long ago and “they” were blocked by liberal judges. Trump needs to fix this. LA would have a whole lot less power in both the State and the Federal governments if the 3 million or so illegals that currently live there were excluded from the census data.

“My county in Maryland went 59% for Trump.

Not all of the state is lunatic.”

That’s true of nearly all Blue States
See my earlier post about Los Angeles. I am betting that the same situation exists with virtually all big cities across the country.

We’re in the same county.

Now I will have to ask my son the actual number. I know that when he first told me, I was stunned.
